Thats the first Mint Cola I've seen with the embossing on the base and without the emblem on the shoulder.

Here is an extremely rare Gay-Ola from the Metropolitan Bottling Works of Oklahoma City, Okla.  I have had this bottle for about 15 years and it was the only one known (it was used for the Oklahoma bottle book) until another one was found last year.  It has a lip chip but I will probably never be able to get another one.

Celerycola, I will post a pic of the other side of the OKC Gay-Ola but it will have to wait about 3 weeks or so.  I am on a job in northern Montana and am nowhere close to the bottle at present!  Maybe I can find something around here though.  By the way, there is a Gay-Ola from Tulsa, Okla. also.  I had one with cracks but have no idea what happened to it.  I think it was in the storage shed at my parents house but the house and everything around it burned down a few years ago.  The back looks just like the OKC one but on the front it has a round slugplate with Tulsa Bottling Works Tulsa, Okla. embossed.  It is a pale aqua color.  I'm sure you know about the Chero-Cola from Davis, Okla.; they had the straight sided one and the one with hobnails(?) like an art deco bottle.  Quapaw, Okla. also had the art deco style bottle and I have that one now.  There is an Bludwine from Hugo, Okla. that is clear turning purple.  There are only two straight sided Pepsi's that I know of from Oklahoma and they are from Oklahoma City and Enid.  There are two variants of the Enid Pepsi bottles and also two variants of the OKC Pepsi's, aqua and clear.  There is 41 different straight sided Coke's from Oklahoma that I know of.  I only have the two from McAlester, one from OKC and traded the others off.  Wish I had them back now.

I will post a pic as soon as I can once I get back home.

What Cola Wars site? The only one I know of is Celery Cola's site. http://www.kolawars.com/

I have a page dedicated to Lemon Kola and another to 3-C Nectar.
